Ok. Now this product is so easy to use, and everything cooks to perfection.Roast dinner' dinner today.Dont expect to put a full meal in and ta dah!!Its to help cut costs, and it does. I started with a 2lb joint of beef room temp, started it on pre heat Turned it up for 20, then foil on, pause it for 10, cook for 10, untill you are happy.I did a joint of lamb after,1lb same process ps i upped the temp +lowered the temp. It is very versital ,browns lovely. Like using an oven you check.Whilst this is cooking i have my oven on at the lowest setting 10 mins before (Af) is at the end of meat cycle.When happy with meat place in oven. Same with roast pots I think you have to! since the old hostess trolly.I have a steamer. I started my potatoes off, 1/2 for mash, rest for roasties from scratch, roasties finish fantastic in AF. As roasties are cooking i steamed my veg.In all it took me an hour to cook, and it all came together great. 2 mins to clean aswell. What i am trying to say is. It would of been 2hrs oven, 3 gas rings on the go, 40 tea towels for the washer. And one tired daddy. Cooked it for my little girl. We got to see Mary Poppins aswell.Just done chicken wings in Af. I took the basket out and lined the outer basket with foil to catch the fat. 25mins Superb!! Still 2mins to clean.Omelette! Take your time be patient and yes it works, i cooked tomatoes first on preheat (180), added the eggs (3) cooked for 5 mins added some cheese 3 mins, came out lovely and fluffy. Cooked brekkie win win. I want to fault it but i can't.Be confident with it, keep an eye on it, enjoy it. I have used my gas oven maybe twice in 2 weeks now. Would recommend to buy the extra trays and racks, but foil is as good.

I bought two of these on special and now they are my go to mode of cooking. They heat quickly, and with the crisper plate, they cook so efficiently and evenly; and best of all… fast!Cleaning is a piece of doddle in my dishwasher as the whole basket is non-stick. I also bought a job lot of 100 paper liners for £4.99 on Amazon that have been invaluable in keeping the machine clean so I don’t have to wash the basket every time.So far I have made the best (fast) roast potatoes, moist turkey crown roast, breakfast ‘all in’ sausages, mushrooms and bacon; and little 69p Tesco fresh mini pizzas (with a few embellished added toppings) make fabulous cheap fast snacks in minutes.Adapting recipes, temperatures and timings is a learning curve, but I now make notes for future use… I have a temperature probe that I have been using as I can’t quite believe how quick this airfryer cooks foods. Unfortunately, because the drawer fits in so precisely, there is no way to cook using my wired meat probe inserted during cooking unless I splashed out on a new wireless Bluetooth one, but with time my confidence will grow and I won’t need to use the temp probe as much to check if meat/poultry is cooked through.I’ve had a tefal family actifry (with stirrer) for years and love it too; but this airfryer knocks spots of it as it’s so much quieter and less fiddly to keep clean.The window is a game changer and makes all the difference as it removes a lot of the guesswork as you can see how your food is cooking and browning without having to open the drawer.10/10 from me. I paid £79.99 on special, and then paid £14.50 for a pathetic metal rack to allow layer cooking, but that was too fiddly trying to work out timings and temperatures for 2 different layered foods, so I just returned it and invested that £14.50 towards a second identical airfryer so I could cook roast potatoes and accompanying meats more efficiently.I now roast potatoes, carrots and parsnips all at the same time and they taste so wonderful. Even my hubby is loving all the food I am preparing.Highly recommended if you can get these machines on offer

I paid over £100 for this, the 5.5l version, back in 2022. Now it is even better value! I use it almost daily and now never use the main oven. I use it for baking part-cooked baguettes, salmon in foil, chicken, baking flatbread, etc.I'm sure I just scratch the surface of what can be done in it and am trying to experiment more. For example, I'm going to try a chicken traybake tonight, which I've never attempted because of the permanent basket. But I now realise that is not a problem because the juices that accumulate can be poured over the meal when served! Edit: the traybake was delicious!There are just the two of us, so our needs are slight but I find that I can make almost any meal using my quartet of Airfryer, microwave, hob and slow cooker.There have been other reviews questioning the life of the catch that keeps the bottom container attached to the main basket and handle, but I have not found it to be a problem. Obviously it is a weakness but the bottom container is never loaded up, and it's still going strong over two years later.The main reason for buying the air fryer was energy cost-savings and it has certainly done that. Along with other economies, we managed to reduce (and maintain) our electricity use by 25%I wholeheartedly recommend this air fryer. It is easy to operate, especially using the short-cut programme buttons. It is easy to keep clean. it cooks rapidly and completely.Even though it is now 30% cheaper than when I bought it, I still think it was a bargain. In fact, I'm now following the various Cosori-users Facebook groups to expand my use of it.

The media could not be loaded. I have had a couple of air fryers including a recent ninja multi cooker which had to return. Was so happy to get this as it cools really well,I already baked a banana bread and cooked several veggies and meat. The only thing I think they should have done is to have an option to clear a cooking setting if you get it wrong. This model will require the turn off turn on button to clear it. All in all I recommend it, sounds wise is not too bad ,cleaning it is easy
